Regulatory T Cells in the Immunodiagnosis and Outcome of Kidney Allograft Rejection by O. Franzese, A. Mascali, A. Capria, V. Castagnola, L. Paganizza, N. Di Daniele

“…Cellular rejection develops when donor alloantigens, presented by antigen-presenting cells (APCs) through class I or class II HLA molecules, activate the immune response against the allograft, resulting in activation of naive T cells that differentiate into subsets including cytotoxic CD8+ and helper CD4+ T cells type 1 (TH1) and TH2 cells or into cytoprotective immunoregulatory T cells (Tregs). …”
